Viva La Verve - July 2012 Week 2

Hi folks,

back with my cards for the Viva La Verve July Week 2 challenge over at SCS.

Here's the sketch:

Once again, I made two cards using the sketch.

The first is a sympathy card for a friend who's Dad passed away recently.

And this is a birthday card for my Great Uncle. His wife, my great Aunt, passed away recently and it just didn't seem right to send a "happy birthday" card.

card details:

• finished size: 4.25 x 5.5 inches, kraft cardstock base
• patterned papers: My Mind's Eye sixbysix Paris & Co
• stamps: Verve "New Mercies" and "Amazing Wishes"
• Spellbinders: Lacey Circles, Petite Circles

Thanks for stopping by! I have a crafty day planned with Tanya on Thursday - so looking forward to a day to sit down and colour! It's my first day of 3 1/2 weeks off from work. A much overdue break!
